Overview
- Donald Doolittle, 58, a part-time safety director at Gateway Community Church in Webster, is charged with impersonating a public servant.
- He allegedly displayed an ID labeled ICE after a massage payment dispute and threatened deportation unless the therapist sent $500 via Zelle.
- Court records identify the victim as massage therapist Rita Dumont Mayans, who paid and later received texts claiming her case was marked for non-prosecution.
- Investigators say Doolittle denied visiting the business, but surveillance footage placed him there; he was arrested and released on a $10,000 bond.
- Gateway’s lead pastor addressed the case during Sunday services, and a DHS official urged the public to report suspected impostors, noting such crimes will be prosecuted.
